Eligibility for the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) is determined primarily by information supplied by the applicant/caretaker. Certain conditions of eligibility must be supported by conclusive, documenting evidence.

At time of application, 6 month review, or when a new member is added to the household, the household is required to provide the following verifications:

• Identity of Applicant/Caretaker(s)
• Citizenship for children for whom CCAP benefits are being requested
• Age for children for whom CCAP benefits are being requested
• Caretaker’s association to the child(ren) for whom CCAP benefits are being requested
• Verification of education
• Court ordered child support or court ordered spousal support deduction;
• All income received by the family, to include all earned, unearned and self-employment income

Should the applicant/caretaker be unable to obtain the required verifications, the eligibility worker may assist with obtaining the information.
